पीडयन्त्यधिकं लोक॑ यस्मात् ते वरदर्पिता: । इन्द्रसहित सम्पूर्ण देवताओंने महात्मा भगवान् शंकरसे कहा--'प्रभो! ब्रह्माजीसे वरदान पाकर ये त्रिपुरनिवासी घोर दैत्य सम्पूर्ण जगत्को अधिकाधिक पीड़ा दे रहे हैं; क्योंकि वरदान प्राप्त होनेसे उनका घमंड बहुत बढ़ गया है
Translation
Because they have been granted that boon, they oppress the world with ever greater torment. Therefore all the gods, together with Indra, said to the great-souled Bhagavān Śaṅkara: “Lord! These dreadful daityas who dwell in Tripura, having obtained a boon from Brahmā, are afflicting the entire world more and more; for, by receiving that boon, their arrogance has greatly increased.”
